Soundwalk 2

Between soundwalk 1 and 2 my favorite was soundwalk 2. To me it's much easier to capture the sound on tape then trying to describe it. The best location I recorded was outside the Smith Chapel. It was during the night, where you could hear the sound of the birds, crickets, the air blowing and the sound from the trees. The hardest place to capture sound was from the edit room. The sounds I described in soundwalk 1 could not be captured with the microphone because either the sound was to low or it just didn't sound right. It was a fun exercise. Now I pay more attention to my surroundings to see where sound is coming from.

Exercise 3: The voice

Recording my voice in a monotone was very hard. I am a very cheesy person. So, every time I talk I always have to smile. When I was doing my monotone recording it was hard to me to smile when talking into the microphone. The only difference that I found between my monotone and enthusiastic recording was that i was much soft talking in the monotone recording.
Reading the children's book was fun and easy to do for me. As mostly everyone knows I have a two year old daughter that I have to read books to every night before bed time. But, I feel that the book I read required of my voice to change then the other books that my classmate picked. I was able to change the pitch of voice with Up, Up Down book by Robert Munsch. I had dialogue in my book which my others classmates didn't. It was a good exercise.

Blog 1

This projec was fun to do and hard to pick out five songs that described my life. The editing and writing was very easy. In my writing I just told the story of my life. The story of how I got to be the person that I am today. I am a student and a young mom working for what she wants. The editing was easy because i learned to use sound forge from previous classes.
 The biggest problem was to upload the mp3 file to the blog. I tried so many different websites and none of them worked
